 一五一 栽 培

一位前來參訪的求道者臨行前請教大師:「我返鄉之後應如何分辨真假師父?」


大師說:「好的師父教導實修的方法;壞的師父空談理論。」


「但我又該如何分辨方法的好壞呢?」


「好比一個農夫,他自然看得出栽培得當與否。」

CULTIVATION

A traveller in quest of the divine asked the Master how to distinguish a true teacher
from a false one when he got back to his own land-

Said the Master, “A good teacher offers practice, a bad one offers theories.”

“But how shall I know good practice from bad?”

“In the same way that the farmer knows good cultivation from bad.”
